Does anyone else's child just never stop???

Does anyone else's child just NEVER STOP?????

She never stops!! I literally have to capture her to make her stop. Shes always moving, always walking, always tumbling. I bought her the backyardigans couch for Christmas thinking she would sit nicely when she got tired enough to watch her shows. Nope! She flips over it. She runs and takes a nose dive on it. Now shes trying to climb up on the couch. She NEVER gets tired. If I let her, she would just stay up running around all night long. I see other kids get tired, sit down and watch tv. Fall asleep on their own, give into exhaustion. Not my Megan..OHHH NO!

Shes 16 months..and I am just wondering if anyone else has a child like this??? I am TIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

Lauren is exactly like that. I am very lucky she naps or else I would go nuts! Lauren cries all day long too, I bet Megan doesn't do that, does she??

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

Ryan is 18 months and is exactly like this! He is always on the move. Lately he does sit with me for a few minutes on the couch and it's great. But most of the time, he is running around, climbing on everything, playing with toys, tossing toys... Up the stairs, running into every room, touching everything in sight...

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

Yes....3 of them. Seriously! Esp my oldest who is 5 but they are all very high energy. No wonder my a*s is always dragging. I am so outenergized over here it's not even funny.

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

mine! She's 20 months and doesn't sit still all day. She's always doing something. If you ask her if she's busy..she'll tell you"busy, busy, busy mommy"

I am exhausted everyday and i have 2, thank goodness my little one isn't mobile yet!

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

Oh my Lord, yes. Ryan has the most energy I have ever seen in a person. He is always moving. Even when he is watching tv he is standing and rocking side to side. He runs all day long around the house and is always on the go, climbing onto the couch, then getting off of it 2 seconds later. He never ever lays down to relax. I think this is why he goes to bed at 6:30 and wakes up at 7am!

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

I got a feeling i will be experiencing this... my dd is wild woman and she is only 3.5 months.

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

noreen, to the triple power over here

I know the feeling. do you have a packnplay? can you entertain her in the highchair with crayons for a few minutes?

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

YES and I am losing my mind

She won't sit still for 30 seconds - she is alwasys on the go. I get so pooped trying to chase her around

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

I really think my son is going to be like this. I cant even change his diaper anymore without him doing somersaults or rolling over a billion times on teh couch. All he does is jump jump jump and jump so more. And he touches EVERYTHING. And get this he is only 6.5 months.

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

OH yeah. He is very busy - into everything and doesn't sit still even to watch TV. he was like that in the womb too!

Re: Does anyone else's child just never stop???

Yep Kerri does this and doesn't nap anymore
